Austin Pets Alive! is implementing innovative and progressive programs in Central Texas after studying the best practices of other cities who are no-kill or are in the process of becoming no-kill. We are currently focused on helping the healthy and treatable pets who are at risk of being killed in a shelter, by rescuing the pets who are at the greatest risk and helping owners who are having problems so great that they need to surrender their pet(s) to a shelter. In our rescue program we focus solely on the pets who have already been passed over by other groups and the shelters’ adoption programs and only take the healthy and treatable pets who are about to be killed and have no other options.
